I've enjoyed a few semi-aged HdM Epi 1's (2011), been intrigued by Epi 2's, but haven't had one I've really enjoyed all that much compared to the other HdM's or robustos I've had, and had a few Epicure Especiales that were good that I have to revisit.

This week my doors were blown off by a '15 Coronation, ROTT as well as a '03 Des Dieux, ROTT.

In the spirit of thin gauge and cheep-ish what should I go for next, in your opinion?

If you'd like a similar Hoyo experience, be super-quick the next time the Le Hoyo du Prince come up on a 24:24. They always sell out quickly, mind you.

Only tried the Epicure Especial. Good cigar but the box I bought has been horribly underfulled (other source than here). Good flavors but I just want more body. Mild to mild-medium cigars just don't do it for me. They always leave me wanting more.

But having said that I have a box of those Epi 1 Seconds incoming. My brother is likely going to buy 10 of them from me, or maybe more if he likes them and they don't do it for me.

If you like the woody side of hdm the palmas extra might be worth a try

X2 on the Hoyo PE's. Great cheap & cheerful and really come into their own after a couple years rest.

Love'm!

Have any of them lined up for a 24:24 in the near future?

I'll be watching 24:24 for a box of du Prince or Palmas Extras like a hawk this week! Thanks

Received a box of du Depute yesterday, not even a year old, Jul 15 if memory serves, first time I've tried them. Hands down one of my new favourite cigars, smoked another today which was a big plugged but *still* good. I am on the skinny HdM bandwagon for sure!

Have Du Prince On recommendation from our host as well and I'll be trying to obtain a second box as soon as I see them. They're very nice ROTT. I'd definetly classify them as a forum favorite, and one of mine now as well. Can't wait to see what they're like in a few months....if they last that long.

I don't think palmas extra will ever come up on 24:24 unless there is a big shout for them. If you like the idea of them an order off the *****int site would probably be the best way to grab some

The 2005 Hoyo Epi 1 I had this morning was top 3 cigars I've ever had. It was milk chocolate, cream, nutty, damn near snickers bar!!!!!
